What is the primary reason for hunter education?

  1. To improve hunting skills

  2. To promote safe firearm handling

  3. To increase game populations

  4. To restrict hunting licenses

The correct answer is: To promote safe firearm handling

Hunter education primarily exists to promote safe firearm handling. While some may think it is solely to improve hunting skills (option A), the main purpose is to ensure that hunters are equipped with the knowledge and skills to safely handle their firearms and reduce the risk of accidents. Option C is incorrect because hunter education does not have a direct impact on game populations; its focus is on safety rather than management of game. Option D is also incorrect as hunter education does not aim to restrict hunting licenses, but rather educate hunters to responsibly obtain and use them.
